Lily has now surpassed early Twitter king Stephen Fry , whose 2,888,226 followers have been eclipsed by the Smile singerâs 3,001,050 online fans.

But the star, who recently changed her Twitter name to @MrsLRCooper after marrying Sam Cooper in June, had a funny way of thanking her fans after reaching the milestone figure.

Stunned that so many people are interested in her ramblings and online spats, the star wrote: â3,000,000 followers, insane. You guys must be bored out of your skulls!â

Weâre inclined to disagree â Lily has regularly kept fans informed and entertained with her account, slating celebs and shows including Kanye West, the X Factor and Courtney Love while offering her thoughts on topics as varied as the phone hacking scandal and fine china.

Still, the pregnant singer-turned-designer isnât taking any of her fans for granted.

The straight-talking 26-year-old signed off saying: âThanks all the same x Coops x.â
